Yes and no. If you haven’t had any testing in the last 5 years such as the ACT then you will need to take the Accuplacer. However, if you have already taken a test such as the ACT or the Accuplacer before and it has been less than 5 years then you can give a copy of your scores to your career advisor to look over. If you met all the required scores then you will not have to take the Accuplacer.

Yes, but you must be at least 16 years old. And you will need the Release Form for 16 and 17-year olds. It must be signed by a parent/guardian, an administrator from the school district in which you reside saying you are no longer enrolled in school anywhere, and then have it notarized. The school usually has a notary on staff in the office. Once the form is complete you will bring it in to the testing center for the proctor to approve you for testing. Otherwise, GED will not let you schedule your test until you turn 18 years old.
